The furniture small cards can be used in various interactive activities that you will check out in this blog post. These cards are easy to carry from one classroom to another. Include these into the lesson plan for your english EFL.

Print and have these flexible teaching tools for your class.

Listen and draw the furniture items. Practice the furniture vocabulary with cards. It will help reinforce vocabulary through repetition.

Teacher: Lamp! Draw a lamp.

Take a look at the video:

Write the word. The small size of the cards helps maintain learners' focus on individual items. I used letters stickers to write the words that are on each small card.

Students can also draw pictures to illustrate each word.

Have the students say sentences as a speaking activity. Check the video:

Show me the furniture. Teachers can quickly assess students' knowledge with this easy activity.

Place several small cards on the board or table. Hold up a furniture piece flashcard. Ask the students to find the same matching one and say a sentence: It’s a clock.

My example video.

Adjective-noun phrase using small cards. This exercise can be easily adjusted to suit different proficiency levels in your class. Write adjective and noun words on small cards. Have the students write adjective words that you either dictate or that they write on the cards.

Students will match the item on the small card and the adjectives cards. They can write these phrases on their notebooks.

Here's the video:

Guess the furniture item. Cards facilitate group work, allowing students to practice speaking and listening skills collaboratively. Place the small cards on a table. Write the word that the students will guess on a piece of paper and hide it. Have the students ask questions to guess: Is it pink?

Teacher: No, it isn’t. It’s not a bathtub. (You can take away that small card)
Students: Is it round? Is it a circle?
Teacher: Yes, it is!
Students: It’s a clock!
